I don't give up on Buddhism. Chaz would relish in that a little too much. I give up on myself. I don't know why. I just do.I got a pretty nasty virus Saturday evening - probably the one you have KDT - and I threw up all night long, slept alone and miserable, had stupid 1850s antebellum American Senate dreams: "I say, Mishtuh Congressman, my constituency will stand for these here foibles, nor will I allow myself to transgress the oath that I took as representative..." I watched movies all day Sunday. Stupid meaningless movies. I had to recuperate. Then my girlfriend got sick on Monday, so I tended to her. Now everyone's back to health and I don't care about anything anymore, porn has even lost appeal. **** the world. **** you, ****me, **** it. We're all gonna be just dirt in the ground.

As for Gondor, I think I prefer the Orcs! Gondor is a little too "white" and angst ridden for my liking.

Nah Greg you are more Gimli the dwarf.

antebellum American Senate dreams ...

hahahaha

Sorry ... that's just awesome. I dunno why it just is.

Mine’s a tale that can’t be told, my freedom I hold dear.How years ago in days of old, when magic filled the air.T’was in the darkest depths of Mordor, I met a girl so fair.But Gollum, and the evil one crept up and slipped away with her, her, her … yeah

Profile Picture: "The Foaming Monk"The Chinese characters are Fo (buddha) and Ming (bright). The image is of a student of Buddhism, who, imagining himself to be a monk, and not understanding the true meaning of the words takes the sound of the words literally. Likewise, People on web forums sometime seem to be foaming at the mouth. Original painting by P.Volker /used by permission.
